Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Ikepod Megapod x Ace Jewelers x Laser 314 — This Is Our Time is an art-focused collaboration with a bold street-art design. Its 46mm UFO-inspired case wears smaller due to its lugless, rounded shape. The watch features a Miyota Caliber 9039 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve and an integrated silicon strap. Reviewers note the black seconds hand is nearly invisible against the matte black dial, making precise time-telling difficult. Overall, reviewers highlight the Ikepod Megapod x Ace Jewelers x Laser 314 — This Is Our Time for its unique art-focused design and wearable case shape, despite a readability challenge.
Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.
